QUOTES

"I look at it this way. If science disappeared from human memory, we would soon be living in caves again. If theology disappeared from human memory, no one would notice. Theology is a completely and utterly useless pursuit. It is self-indulgence of the first order. It grieves me that public money is spent on theological colleges while real education struggles to gain the funds it needs to maintain itself."Terry Sanderson

"Religion does not teach self-reliance, independence, manliness, courage, self-defense. Religion makes God a master and man his serf. The master cannot be great enough to make slavery sweet."- Robert Green Ingersoll, 1899

"The fact that a believer is happier than a skeptic is no more to the point than the fact that a drunken man is happier than a sober one."George Bernard Shaw

"Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call on her tribunal for every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear."Thomas Jefferson

"The way to see by Faith, is to shut the eye of Reason."Benjamin Franklin

"He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression, for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach even unto himself."Thomas Paine
